Work has been kind of stressful lately, mostly because people keep quitting and not giving any notice. I've decided that all the stress is outweighed by being able to buy stuff that I don't need whenever I feel like it, including but not limited to:

1. Three Kind of Like Spitting albums. I got the new one, In the Red and the fairly new one that' ( Read more... )

We went to see Wilco last night. They did a benefit show in Indianapolis, and Erin won free tickets from a radio station, so...we went. It was pretty good. They did a lot of stuff from the newest album. I think they did, anyway, because I didn't really know a lot of the stuff they played. Erin has the setlist posted, I think. I was kind of ( Read more... )

In case you guys don't read gravymonster's blog, he and I have a new album out. You should all go buy it here. I think if we sell like 30 copies, we can afford to go to Red Lobster, which is pretty much my goal in the music industry.

So, I apparently haven't posted at all since the store opened. I've been at work just about the whole time. I had a day off last Sunday, and it's might be the first one I've really had since the last time I posted, actually. That all went well, the opening. I think we had about 1,200 people come through in 5 hours, and there was a line down the ( Read more... )

I signed the lease for my apartment today. I really like it. We got a two-story, two-bedroom townhouse in what everybody says is pretty much the nicest complex in town. It's pretty nice. Lots of closet, 1.5 bathrooms, and a little deck that looks into a wooded area in the back instead of a parking lot. The rent is $642. We're paying $40 a ( Read more... )

Hey, everybody, I'm in Indiana. Everything's going pretty well. We're starting work in the actual store tomorrow, after two weeks of training people in the hotel. The store is weird and small and has some security issues, but it's nice. I'm moving into an apartment on the 14th, and if I'm lucky, all my stuff will be moving in on the same day. ( Read more... )

I got the promotion. I'm moving in a week and a half.

Bleah. I hate writing big catch-up entries. It hasn’t been as long since I posted as I thought, though, so there’s less to cover. The only major, non-status quo thing is work-related; if you read Erin’s blog, you’re probably about as up to date on that as I am. The long and short of it is that it’s almost certain that I’m getting promoted in ( Read more... )

I totally have hardly even seen the internet in like three weeks. Here's some stuff that's happened since then ( Read more... )

Went to the Atmosphere show last night. It was pretty good. More good than not, at least. Josh and I got there right as the doors were opening, and while we paid for parking, we heard somebody soundchecking something that sounded like a cello. Weird. When we got inside, the stage was piled with instruments, one of which was a cello. It seemed ( Read more... )
